pack: skip reconstructing artifacts that cannot be manifests

deriveCandidateHints visited every artifact in the store and reconstructed each one in full, only for parseForImport to discard the blobs. Two bytes decide it instead: §4.4 makes byte 0 of a structural artifact a card letter and byte 1 its delimiter, so a prefix inflate classifies without paying for the whole artifact.

Conservative both ways -- a delta frame or a prefix error falls through to the full read, and only a definite mismatch rejects -- so output is byte-identical, verified on every corpus tried.

Pack of a full-form-dominated store (the shape import-git's automatic pack reads) 10.84s to 8.49s. Neutral on an already-packed store, where deltas dominate and cannot be classified this way.

Sub-manifest: card alphabet, artifact type, and the specification's vectors

Adds S as the twenty-second card letter and SUBMANIFEST as the ninth artifact type, per draft-fossil-submanifests-00 sections 3 and 4. Type determination reassigns after the card scan rather than during it, so no type is committed while cards are still being read (section 9.1). Reading and classification only: no tree walk, no emission.

The draft's seven appendix vectors ship alongside, each named by the SHA3-256 the draft states and checked by a test that recomputes it. check-in: 9b8bad477a user: dmestas tags: sub-manifest
